Michael Jackson: King of Pop

This title chronicles the song and dance genius of the King of Pop, whose recent death reinforced the level of his global influence and stardom.

While covering controversies and oddities - from the trial on molestation charges to his cosmetic surgeries to his amusement-park house Neverland, the book also details his incredible songs, videos, work habits, childhood, and groundbreaking career.

Jackson's music is still popular with young people, especially with the convenience of MP3 downloads and the enthusiasm passed down from older fans.

Lives Cut Short is a series in Essential Library, an imprint of ABDO Publishing Company.
